Go on.....you know you want to
Ok folks if you have got this far you may want to know what is going on. Well this chap is the first of my sllyth conversions for my court of the archon. In the DE codex an archon can be escorted into battle with a retinue of choice followers, and the snakelike slyth is one of them.
I was/am not a fan of the finecast gw models so decided I would create my own, that would fit into the theme of my harlequin carnival. As soon as I saw the new blight kings models I knew I had to use them somehow and an idea slowly grew in my sleep deprived mind........fat blokes with lollipops. YES!
Over the last few weeks I have been slowly working on these models, and the fatty chappy above is the first fruit of my labour. I tried to make him more like a haemonculi creature, such as a wrack or grotesque, so added a few syringes in choice places to make him look like he is being packed full of choice mutating drugs. I am pretty darn pleased with the overall result. He fits right in.
More of these bad boys to come :)
Nafnaf out!

Give a lick, see how it tastes! Only the best from Nafnaf's coven! Looks great! Such character. Going to be so fun on the tabletop!
ReplyDeleteHehe thanks Greg. It was a blast to make him. I can't wait to see them pile out of a raider and the look on my opponents face when they do :)
DeleteThat is awesome! Really dig that build, man.
ReplyDeleteCheers Mordian. The blight kings kit is such a joy to work with, it nearly turned me to nurgle :D. I have 7 more to come
DeleteNice subtle conversion. Great job.
ReplyDeleteI think we're going to see a lot of conversions with these guys. It's such an awesome looking kit.
Thanks Thor. It really is a stunning kit. There are so many options and it is so detailed and fun I almost felt like putting them together and starting my own nurgle army :)
DeleteOk, THIS is DEFINITLY weird...cool, but f**king weird! :D
ReplyDeleteHehe cheers Logan. They are definately weird :D
DeleteTop tip: Don't accept lollipops from Nafnaf in person.
Deletebut who could refuse a lollipop :D
